The two products in the same category with the closest price.
Yoke, left and right joysticks/throttles, rudder pedals; center stick with optional bracket, as stated by Trak Racer.
It's built around the airline layout. Left and right side mounts carry a sidestick and a throttle quadrant for Airbus flying, or a quadrant beside a yoke on the sliding mount for Boeing nights. The rudder mount puts the pedals where the seat expects them, and the seat sliders let you set the reach once and forget it.
The seat is the detail that sells it: reclining, with HOTAS cut-outs and lumbar support, designed with Airbus according to Trak Racer. Fighter pilots aren't forgotten, but the center stick needs an optional bracket, sold separately for $99.
Trak Racer is clear about what's not in the box: peripherals, monitors and the seat belt harness. Single or triple monitor stands are optional, so decide early whether you fly on screens or in VR.
Trak Racer doesn't publish a product weight or a maximum user weight, which leaves two blanks in our data. The warranty floor is one year, with up to five years on frames according to Trak Racer's FAQ; check the product page for this model.
